after THE SIMS.

The Chicago Herald of Tuesday goes
after the two Sans in the following artistic
style:
Addressing a large audience at Minneap-
oils, sam Small, sometimes called a reyer-
end. said You take in 81 circus. but
You won't go 10 a 10 cent circus. They are
all alike. They are both circuSrS with a
different price of admission; that's all. We
need light" Reverend Sam is correct in
the assumption that there are circuses and
circuSes. The SO show and the 10 cent show
do not include them all. Perhaps there is
need of light aS 10 another important,
branch of the show business. The two
Sans are al the head of il. They invade a
town with or without invitation and set
up. As a rule, IN the biggest
auditorium that they can find. II they eau
drag in a few misguided preachers they do
So but whether they succeed in this or not
they abuse them just the same, and make
light of every recognized and reasonable
mode Of worship. Coming under the gui>e
of reviyaliSts themselves, they are at liberty
to say and do many things which would be
deemed highly scandalous if Bob lngersoll
should attempt anything OF the sort The
minister who sits on the stage during their
blackguardsm. muendoes and criticisms
does so under the belief that they may
reach some people in this way who could
not be reached in any other manner, but
he is the clown of the circus lust the same.
The Great Moral and Immoral Two Sans
show is neither So nor 10 cent show.
1t is thousand dollar week affair. in
which scrupulous attention is paid To the
hnN raaainfS II il a prnSs h.fNy R,h In
eersolrs show and Congo fetch dance.
II affords more enjoyment 10 ScotierS and
intidels than it does to any other element.
The unhappy creature who is converted by
il finds himself at war with every other
form of religious expression and
incapable of allying himself with
churches or sects which worship with circum-
spection. The filings at established creedS
and forms of worship are what the vulga-
rians who make up the Two Sans audience
20 to hear. They are what evoke the loud
est outlaws. The more there are of them
the bigger will be the receipts. There are
circuseS and circuSes. but the poorest show
at the highest price now travelling in
America is that which is presided over by
the two Sans.
While the criticism, made upon the ring
masters. may in great sense be Just, yet
to classify all who attend their meetings as
vulgarians, is wholly unjust. Many good
people are attracted to hear them.
City council did right last night in defer
ring final action on the gas franchise buSi-
ness. II is wisdom TO make haste slowly
on that question.

as the place and July Goth and 2lst as the
time for holding their state convention.
Why they have departed from their usual
custom of always following the republican
convention, is not plain. unless il is that
the possession OF the federal offices has
made them bold. The average citizen is
not able, however, to even guess at what
they will point with pride in either their
state OF national management of affairs.

MAIN STREET.

Why New Buildings are Nos
Erected around the Playa.
It has been matter of remark that no
new buildings are going up on that por.
ton of Main street which has been lately
opened from the Plaza to Alameda
street. After great trial and tribulation
the encroaching property was con-
demned or purchased, the street opened
and graded and substantial sidewalks
put down. The cars Of the City Rail.
road Company were run through the
street, and everybody expected to see
rows of splendid houses spring up as if
by magic, but they didn't spring, Sen.
tous being the only one who ventured to
break the monotony of the adobe-line
thoreughfare by handsome brick front.
The reason of this seeming apathy was
yesterday ascertained by Conversations
with large property holders to be that
there is no sewer on this street. The
property owners state that they have
twice petltioned the Council to put down
a sewer. and that they would pay one.
third the cost. These petitions have
been referred to the Sewer COMMITTEES
and have not been reported on, and no
action has been taken. The owners
want the sewer to start at the Plaza and
run TO Macy street and thence to Ala.
media street, where it will connect with
the large sewer on that street. Messrs.
Vickery, Miles, Jones, Howes and others
are ready and anxious to build SO soon
as some action is taken on the sewer
matter.
